OpenAI’s head of ChatGPT testified in Google’s antitrust case that the company would be interested in buying the Chrome web browser if Alphabet is forced to spin it off. OpenAI has its own search product but has struggled with distribution; access to Chrome’s reach would be a boon for the company.

Google's antitrust trial enters the remedies phase, with the DOJ seeking Chrome breakup and AI restrictions. The DOJ wants Google to sell the Chrome browser and end exclusive deals with device makers. Users may see more search engine choices if the court orders major changes.
